A local artist d-iZe live at a department store in Hirosaki
The local singer/songwriter "d-iZe" will perform a live event on July 31st in the event space on the 1st floor of the Hirosaki department store "Nakasan Hirosaki store" (Hirosaki city bank). ..
The event is planned by the store, which celebrated its 120th anniversary in June. We asked Soybean-san to make a theme song to commemorate the 120th anniversary, and on July 3rd, the specialty store “INSTANT POP FACTORY”, which collects original products made by Soybean-san, opened on the 4th floor.
Mr. Soybean has been active as a singer/songwriter since 2010, and has been a leader of the unit "Goosehouse" with more than 700 million views on YouTube until 2014. He is currently devoting himself to solo activities, and in February released his first nationwide release album "IN A BEDROOM". Has live performances in Japan and abroad.
Mr. Takahiko Higuchi of the store's business planning department said, "If soybean, who is supported by the younger generation, I think that the generation who is often away from department stores may be interested." As for the song, I asked for a song that not only our shop but also the town of Dote and Hirosaki would be energetic, and they consented to me and announced a new song completely written down,” he smiles. ..
Mr. Soybean said about the store, "I remember when I was in junior high school, I saved money and bought a muffler myself at Christmas time. There was an uplifting feeling of using a lot of money and the illusion that I was approaching an adult." I look back. “It's the first time I've made a theme song, and the first time I've opened it up to my specialty store. If I could do more interesting things in the 120th anniversary project,” he said.
On the day of the event, a single CD (800 yen) containing the theme song "Be POP!!" commemorating the 120th anniversary of Nakazono's founding will be sold on "INSTANT POP FACTORY" from 10:00 at a limited number of 1000. At the live show, "Be POP!!" will be shown, and then autograph session will be held from 14:00 for CD buyers.
Starts at 13:00. Free viewing.
